Chapter 1941: Chapter 1944

Haleigh studied her, pausing before continuing, “Karina, I know you’re a wonderful woman, and I understand your sentiments.

You’re still young.

Don’t hesitate to settle down if you meet the right man.

”

Having grown close over time, Haleigh regarded Karina as her own daughter .

She knew Karina had no plans to marry anytime soon.

Yet, she couldn’t help but hope that Karina would eventually find fulfillment and happiness in a marriage.

“Haleigh, are you getting tired of me always popping in and bothering you?” Karina teased, placing her glass down and affectionately latching onto Haleigh’s arm.

Haleigh chuckled.

“How could I ever tire of you?”

“Then please, let’s drop the talk about marriage.

I just want to be here for you,” Karina insisted, her expression turning serious.

Haleigh sighed softly, patting her hand, “You’re such a dear.

Let’s take things as they come.

But I do hope you find your happiness!”

Meanwhile, in the Moreno family villa, Brian, after ensuring Rosalynn was asleep, quietly exited the room and made his way to the guest room.

After contemplating for a moment, he decided to call Sanford.

Despite Sanford being engaged, he had frequently been seen with Jaelyn, causing quite a stir.

The situation had been challenging for Millie, and it strained the relationship between the Moreno and Robles families.

As Sanford’s closest friend, Brian yearned for him to discover genuine happiness and love in marriage.

It was evident that Sanford’s heart wasn’t fully committed to marrying Millie.

In a sense, he was causing pain to both Millie and himself.

This heartbreaking situation weighed heavily on Brian’s heart as he dialed Sanford’s number.

After a few rings, the call was answered.

“Brian, what’s the reason for calling at this hour?”

Background noise suggested Sanford was probably at the Royarid Club.

Brian took a moment before diving straight into his query.

“If Maggie were to return, would you still proceed with your plans to marry Millie?”

Silence ensued, punctuated by the faint sound of music being lowered at Sanford’s request.

“Why bring this up?” Sanford’s tone held a hint of inquiry.

Brian was forthright.

“You know damn well why.

”

Acknowledging their mutual intelligence, Brian trusted Sanford would grasp the underlying message.

Sanford’s response came after a pause, marked by a scoff.

“Whether she returns or not, what concern is it of mine? Remember, I’m engaged.

”
